This is a C# reference loader for glTF.  It's as simple to use as `Interface.LoadModel("PathToModel.gltf")`.  You can use this loader in your project by importing the "glTF2Loader" NuGet package.  Additional examples can be found in the gltfLoaderUnitTests project.

## Build Instructions

### Prerequisites

This solution requires access to the glTF schema to compile and the sample models to test. It assumes that the glTF and glTF-Sample-Assets repos have been cloned under the same root directory that the glTF-CSharp-Loader repo was cloned.

```
repos
+-- glTF
|   +-- README.md
+-- glTF-CSharp-Loader
|   +-- README.md
+-- glTF-Sample-Assets
|   +-- README.md
```

### Building

To build the project, load the GltfLoader.sln solution.  Click "Start". This will build glTFLoader_Shared, GeneratorLib, and Generator. It will then run the Generator. The generator reads the .spec files defining the glTF standard and generates a set of classes that will be used as the schema for loading your models. The glTFLoader project can now be built.  You will need glTFLoader.dll and glTFLoader_shared.dll in order to use the loader in any subsequent project.
